ADNAN OKTAR: Sometimes, I hear people complain, saying "Fasting is very exhausting, I cannot think straight, I am a nervous wreck." What kind of fasting is this? What are you thinking? Or some people make inappropriate jokes saying, "I am writhing in pain." God says in Surat al-Baqara, verse 184, “And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person.” God is not in need of your fasting. Don't fast if you are unable to but it is disgraceful to mention and complain about it.
